INTRODUCTION 

Some  years  ago  when  one  of  the  authors  of  this  work  was  engaged  in 
looking  up  authorities  upon  tin  deposits,  no  list  of  the  papers  on  even 
such  noted  occurrences  as  those  of  Great  Britain,  Germany,  or  the  Malay 
Peninsula  was  to  be  found,  while  it  required  much  effort  and  continued 
search  to  find  what  had  been  written  upon  Bolivia  and  the  lesser  known 
localities. 

No  monographic  work  covered  the  field,  for  many  discoveries  and  great 
developments  had  taken  place  since  the  appearance  of  the  only  compre- 
hensive book,  E.  Eeyer's  "  Zinn,"  in  1880,  and  his  bibliographic  references 
were  often  indefinite  and  far  from  complete.  There  seemed  to  be  real 
need  for  an  extensive  bibliography,  and  during  five  years  one  or  both 
authors  have  been  engaged  a  considerable  part  of  the  time  in  the  col- 
lection and  digestion  of  material  for  such  a  publication.  Since  the  work 
was  begun  Sydney  Fawns'  "  Tin  Deposits  of  the  World  "  has  appeared, 
but  the  list  of  authorities  given  is  not  extensive. 

Owing  to  the  circumstances  under  which  the  work  was  done  the  notes 
upon  the  papers  listed  do  not  consistently  follow  one  plan.  Little 
attempt  has  been  made  to  digest  works  in  foreign  languages.  Of  those 
in  English,  some  are  digested,  some  have  the  contents  noted,  and,  in  a 
few  cases,  where  it  conveys  a  good  idea  of  the  matter  treated,  only  the  title 
is  given. 

In  digesting  articles  upon  the  geology  of  tin  deposits  it  has  been  aimed 
to  give,  where  possible,  (a)  the  country  rocks,  (b)  age,  (c)  origin  of  the 
deposits,  (d)  accompanying  minerals,  (e)  economic  importance,  and  (f) 
other  details  of  value. 

When  desiring  to  consult  the  literature  of  tin  deposits  it  is  believed 
that  as  a  rule  persons  will  wish  to  know  about  the  tin-bearing  veins, 
dikes,  or  placers  of  a  particular  country  or  district,  and  in  the  arrange- 
ment of  this  bibliography  the  works  are,  where  possible,  placed  under 
the  names  of  the  countries  in  which  are  located  the  tin  deposits  of  which 
they  treat.  The  names  of  the  countries  follow  each  other  in  alphabetic 
order,  and  under  each  heading  names  of  authors  are  in  similar  order.

Anonymous  articles  are  listed  under  "Anon."  which  takes  its  place  in 
the  alphabetic  sequence.  Where  more  than  one  article  occurs  under 
"  Anon."  they  are  arranged  chronologically. 

Where  deposits  in  a  number  of  countries  are  treated  in  one  article, 
the  title  is  placed  under  the  heading  "  General." 

Works  treating  preponderantly  of  the  extraction,  handling,  and  re- 
duction of  tin  ores  are  placed  under  "  Mining  and  Milling "  and 
"  Metallurgy."  The  lists  given  under  these  subjects  are  not  published 
with  the  idea  that  they  are  complete  and  no  effort  has  been  made  to 
make  them  so,  but  as  important  articles  were  met,  it  seemed  best  to 
note  them,  in  the  hope  that  even  an  incomplete  list  might  be  of  use  to 
many  persons  who  desire  only  a  certain  amount  of  general  knowledge 
upon  the  subject.  The  lists  may  serve,  also,  as  a  nucleus  for  some  who 
w^ish  to  pursue  the  subject  further. 

Headings  other  than  "  General "  and  names  of  countries  form  a  second 
alphabetic  list  which  follows  the  list  of  countries. 

In  the  geological  portion  of  the  bibliography  it  is  believed  that  no  im- 
portant paper  upon  tin  appearing  up  to  the  middle  of  1908  has  been 
omitted.  Following  this  prefatory  note  will  be  found  the  abbreviations 
used  for  journals  referred  to  in  the  work.  The  bibliography  is  classified 
as  follows:  I,  By  Countries;  II,  General;  III,  History;  IV,  Metallurgy 
and  Chemistry;  V,  Mineralogy;  VI,  Mining  and  Milling;  VII,  Statis- 
tics. It  is  thought  that  the  exhaustive  index  prepared  by  Mr.  Lancaster  D. 
Burling  will  supplement  the  arrangement  of  articles  under  countries  and 
make  the  finding  of  particular  papers  comparatively  easy.

Tin  is  found  on  the  Benoue,  an  affluent  of  the  Niger.  In  the  French  Congo  it 
is  found  in  the  Crystal  Mountains,  on  the  Oubanghi  and  Ouelle  Makua,  also  at 
Massinga  (or  Massinda)  north  of  the  village  of  Agapata  in  the  upper  basin  of 
the  Banghi  in  a  region  of  Archaean  rocks  and  granite  with  copper. 

In  the  northeast  part  of  Swaziland  near  the  frontier  of  the  Transvaal,  tin  has  been 
known  for  a  long  time.  Deposits  at  Embabaan  only  are  promising.  Though  tin

According  to  Dr.  Molengraaff  the  region  is  one  of  mica,  talc,  chlorite,  and 
amphibolite  schists  with  some  quartzites  carrying  magnetite,  similar  to  the  forma-, 
tion  at  Hospital  Hill,  Johannesburg.  The  cassiterite  is  found,  not  in  the  quartz, 
but  in  the  pegmatite  cutting  the  schists.

AFRICA  (Continued) 

Holds  that  the  pneumatolytic  theory  of  tin  deposits  is  untenable  and  attempts 
to  explain  the  South  African  deposits  on  the  hypothesis  that  they  are  formed  by 
magmatic  differentiation  or  by  the  combined  action  of  magmatic  differentiation  and 
lateral  secretion.  The  South  African  deposits  are  individually  briefly  reviewed.

Amer.  Inst.  Mg.  Eng.,  Vol.  39,  1909,  New  York,  pp.  783-789. 

Describes  the  Cape  Town  (Kuils  River),  Bushveld  and  Swaziland  (Oshoek  and 
Forbes  Reef)  tin  deposits  as  they  appeared  in  1904. 

At  Kuils  River  crystallized  pinkish-gray  cassiterite  occurs  with  wolframite  in 
a  5-foot  quartz  vein  cutting  granite.  Placers  have  been  formed  from  the  vein. 
At  Bushveld  cassiterite  occurs  with  quartz  in  decomposed  granite. 

The  Oshoek  deposits  are  stanniferous  hornblende  pegmatites  and  placers  derived 
from  them.  The  pegmatites  carry  garnet,  monazite,  euxenite,  seschynite,  and 
large  isolated  crystals  of  cassiterite.  In  the  Forbes  Reef  deposits  cassiterite  occurs 
in  an  aplite  dike  and  in  thin  veins  cutting  schists  which  carry  cinnabar,  gold, 
scheelite,  bismuth,  monazite,  euxenite,  aeschynite,  copper  and  iron  pyrites,  pyrrhotite, 
margarite  and  tourmaline.  Crystals  from  the  veins  when  scratched,  sometimes  fly  to 
pieces  like  Rupert's  drops. 

The  description  shows  a  marked  resemblance  between  some  of  the  South  African 
deposits  and  some  of  those  near  Hill  City,  South  Dakota,

At  Embabaan,  Swaziland,  tin  occurs  in  "  the  older  granite  "  cutting  Archaean 
beds  composed  of  mica,  chlorite  and  talc  schists,  with  some  amphibolite  and 
quartzite.  The  granite  shows  dioritic  phases.  Where  tin  is  most  plentiful  quartz 
is  almost  absent  in  the  granite.  The  coarsest  cassiterite  occurs  in  the  granite  with 
pegmatite  containing  blue,  white,  or  yellow  quartz.  Some  cassiterite  crystals 
appear  monoclinic  and,  where  twinned,  orthorhombic.  Pieces  of  cassiterite  weighing 
^4  to  %  pound  are  not  uncommon  and  masses  of  8  pounds  occur.  Ilmenite,  mostly 
in  fine  grains,  corundum,  monazite,  aeschynite,  and  euxenite  in  crystals  as  large 
as  those  of  the  tin  ore  are  found  in  the  debris  and  in  the  pegmatite  with  the 
cassiterite.  Deposits  in  decomposed  granite  and  pegmatite  are  worth  up  to  $1.25 
per  yard;  residual  concentrations  and  alluvial  deposits  of  great  irregularity  as  to 
distribution  of  values,  are  worked.  The  fields  are  not  as  large  as  those  of  Australia 
or  the  Malay  Peninsula.  Suction  dredges  may  prove  profitable.  Labor  is  cheap, 
material  high.  Between  1600  and  1700  tons  of  tin  ore  have  been  produced,  at  a 
profit  of  £33  5s.  7d.  per  ton. 

Second  article  describes  mode  of  sluicing.  Corundum  and  monazite  are  picked 
from  the  coarser  concentrates. 

Third  article  describes  the  Waterberg  deposits,  100  miles  north  of  Pretoria.  Tin 
occurs  in  sandstone,  granite,  felsites  and  shales  near  contacts.  In  the  northern 
part  of  the  field  the  tin  is  in  irregular  impregnations  in  granite;  in  the  southern 
part  it  is  in  pipes.  At  Zwartkloof  decomposed  granite  carrying  about  2s.  worth 
of  tin  per  cubic  yard  will  be  hydraulicked.  Gives  a  description  of  the  milling 
process  at  the  Zaaiplaats  and  Rooiberg  mines.

Tin  is  found  near  Ashland,  Clay  County.  The  ore  occurs  both  in  lodes  and  as 
stream  tin,  and  is  reported  to  exist  in  considerable  quantities.  Metal  produced 
from  the  ore  seems  to  have  been  a  mixture  of  iron  and  tin.  Work  began  at  the

been  carried  on  in  the  Seward  Peninsula  since  the  close  of  1906.  The  known 
Alaskan  tin  deposits  that  are  of  a  character  sufficiently  encouraging  to  warrant 
prospecting,  are  limited  to  the  extreme  western  part  of  Seward  Peninsula,  and  are 
embraced  in  an  area  of  about  400  square  miles."

Tin  has  recently  been  re-discovered  in  various  parts  of  Argentina.  Deposits 
were  formerly  exploited  by  Jesuits,  who  obtained  tin  from  the  outcrops  of  the 
veins  for  bell  metal.  Cassiterite  occurs  in  small  crystals  in  granulite  near 
Tinogasta  (Catamarca),  at  the  village  of  Mazan.  In  La  Rioja  Province,  close  to 
the  Catamarca  frontier,  a  company  is  at  work  with  100  miners  on  a  stockwerk 
of  small  veins  occurring  in  altered  granulite  dikes.  Surface  ore  gave  7  per  cent 
tin,  but  in  depth  the  per  cent  fell  to  1  and  l1/^.  Mining  is  cheap  and  easy;  the 
country  is  fairly  watered,  well  wooded  and  fertile.

Stream  tin  has  been  worked  in  the  neighborhood  of  Ovens,  Victoria,  for  many 
years  in  conjunction  with  gold,  also  near  Albany.  Deposits  light,  would  scarcely 
pay  if  not  accompanied  by  gold.  Stream  tin  has  been  found  in  creeks  and  rivers 
in  Gippsland.  Country  is  unexplored  as  yet;  cannot  predict  as  to  lodes.  In  the 
Inverel  district  of  New  South  Wales,  considerable  deposits  of  tin  have  been 
worked  with  varying  success.  In  Queensland,  at  Stanthorpe,  is  the  largest  and 
most  promising  deposit  of  tin.  Chief  deposit  of  Tasmania  is  at  Mount  Bischoff, 
35  miles  from  Emu  Bay,  on  northwest  coast,  a  mountain  3000  feet  above  sea 
level,  evidently  of  volcanic  origin,  surface  stone  is  composed  of  decayed  granite, 
porphyry,  and  quartzose  rock,  through  which  tin  is  disseminated.  Wash  dirt 
varies  from  3  to  40  feet  deep.  No  overburden  beyond  a  foot  or  two.  Purely  lode 
tin.  Probably  deposited  by  some  volcanic  action.  Near  the  mountain  pieces  of 
lode  weighing  from  1  pound  to  \Vz  cwt.  are  found;  not  water  worn,  and  very 
pure.  Assays  from  70  to  73  per  cent.

The  stanniferous  deposits  of  Banca  and  Billiton  are  said  to  be  the  best  tin 
deposits  in  the  world.  An  analysis  of  Banca  metal  gave: 

Tin     99.961  per  cent 

Iron    00.019  per  cent 

Lead     00.14    per  cent 

Copper 00.006  per  cent 

There  are  200  mines  worked  in  Banca  by  private  companies,  while  Vz  of  that 
number  are  exploited  by  the  Dutch  Government.  Mines  of  Billiton  are  in  possession 
of  a  private  concern,  which  pays  a  royalty  to  the  government  of  3  per  cent  of 
annual  yield.

Treats  of  the  political,  topographic,  geological,  and  commercial  aspects  of 
Billiton,  Dutch  East  Indies,  and  its  tin  mining  industry.  Describes  in  excellent 
manner  the  methods  of  working  the  deposits  (from  the  commercial  side  rather  than 
the  mechanical)  and  handling  the  Chinese.  Besides  tin,  iron  is  the  only  commercial 
mineral  found  in  quantity.  There  are  small  quantities  of  tungsten,  gold,  lead, 
and  copper.

In  the  Huanuni  district  in  Bolivia  on  the  mountain  of  Pozoconi,  many  of  the 
tin  veins  run  into  tin  pyrites  at  from  100  to  200  feet  in  depth.  "  Solid  tinstone  of

miles  south  of  Huanuni  is  25  to  30  feet  wide,  averaging  20  per  cent  tin.  The 
vein  is  composed  of  grains  of  SnO2  in  an  argillaceous  rock. 

The  Arecayo  mine  of  the  Oruro  district,  has  lodes  from  1  to  3  feet  wide  and 
has  considerable  masses  of  solid  ore,  averaging  more  than  40  per  cent  tin.

tin,  the  famous  silver  mines  of  Oruro  have  depended  for  their  prosperity  more 
on  their  tin  output  than  silver  production.  Bolivia  now  one  of  the  largest 
producers  of  tin  in  the  world.  Total  shipments  in  1904  from  Oruro  district 
amounted  to  equivalent  of  8000  tons  of  metallic  tin,  in  1903  the  output  was  about 
one-half  as  large.

35  tin  mines  at  work;  cost  of  production  very  heavy;  no  such  deposits  known 
in  Peru  or  Chili;  Oruro  district  largest  producer;  geological  conditions  extremely 
varied;  Huanuni  mine  credited  with  two-thirds  of  output  of  State;  situated  in  a 
sort  of  stockwork  in  Mount  Posconi,  10,500  feet  high;  in  most  cases  Sn02  gives 
way  to  stanniferous  pyrites  at  depth  of  130'-160',  one  vein  is  filled  with  pure 
tinstone  to  a  depth  of  650'  or  more;  9  miles  south  are  mines  of  Challa  and 
Apacheta  where  is  a  vein  25  to  30  feet  thick  which  in  parts  can  be  dug  with  a 
spade  (where  pyritiferous).  Many  "  veneros  "  in  this  neighborhood  not  well  worked. 
Fifty  miles  north  of  Oruro  is  Colquiri,  where  the  Spaniards  used  to  work  silver 
ores  but  neglected  tin,  as  usual.  Tin  veins  close  at  hand  are  still  untouched.  In 
the  mountains  of  Tres  Cruces,  (20,000'  alt.)  the  Sayaquiri  vein  is  25  feet  thick. 
Ore  rather  poor,  associated  with  iron  pyrites  and  wolframite,  but  some  crystalline 
ore  runs  70  per  cent  tin. 

Avicaya  mines  are  productive  and  rock  is  compact  porphyry.  In  the  department 
of  La  Paz,  the  mines  of  Milluni,  Huayna  Potosi  and  Chocaltaya  are  all  on  one 
ore  belt  12  miles  in  length.  Veins,  appear  to  be  of  very  recent  origin,  for  the}' 
occur  near  fossiliferous  gypsum-bearing  beds  and  red  clays  which  have  been  faulted 
by  disturbances  that  raised  the  neighboring  Andes.  Are  in  slates  of  Silurian  or 
pre-Silurian  age.  Many  veins  not  worked.  Bolivian  tin  ores  are  not  connected 
with  plutonic  granite,  but  appear  to  be  connected  genetically  with  thermal  springs, 
which  hold  metallic  sulphides  in  solution  and  were  the  outcome  of  Cretaceous  and 
Tertiary  volcanic  eruptions.

working,  difficulties  of  transportation.  Most  important  deposits  are  situated  among 
the  mountain  ranges  bordering  the  table-land  to  the  east  and  northeast  of  Oruro 
and  Lake  Poopo,  and  are  scattered  over  some  500  square  miles.  General  country  rock 
is  shale,  more  or  less  highly  inclined  and  contorted  from  eruptions  of  trachytic 
porphyry;  the  tin  veins  occur  in  the  latter.

Tin-bearing  country  extends  along  eastern  border  of  Bolivian  table-land  from 
lake  Titicaca  to  near  the  Argentine  boundary.  At  Potosi  and  Oruro  tin  is  asso- 
ciated with  ores  of  silver,  in  other  places,  found  alone  or  mixed  with  iron  oxide 
and  earthy  matter.  Country  rock  is  shale,  inclined  and  contorted  from  eruptions 
of  trachytic  porphyry;  the  tin  veins  occur  in  the  latter  rock.  Mode  of  occurrence 
varies  even  in  one  group  of  mines.  Country  lacks  adequate  mining  machinery.

Mines  are  briefly  described.  Tin  ore  occurs  chiefly  at  La  Paz  on  the  north, 
Oruro  in  the  middle,  Chorolque  on  the  south  and  Potosi  on  the  east.  Huanuni 
is  richest  tin  district.  Transportation  by  pack  mules,  llamas  and  wagons.  '  The 
best  tin  is  said  to  come  from  Berenguela,  45  miles  east  of  Oruro.  Mines  were 
formerly  worked  for  silver.  Some  of  the  tin  ore  is  very  hard  to  handle  on  account 
of  the  large  amount  of  antimony  and  other  sulphides.  Tin  mining  develops  as 
transportation  becomes  easier.  350  tons  barilla  (concentrates)  estimated  to  give 
210  tons  of  bar  tin.

on  by  mules  and  llamas.  The  labor  problem  is  one  of  great  difficulty.  With

Bolivia  presents  after  the  Malayan  States  the  most  interesting  field  for  tin  mining. 
Since  ore  occurs  mostly  in  lodes,  it  has,  in  many  respects  an  advantage  over  those 
countries  depending  on  alluvial  grounds,  which  are  rapidly  becoming  depleted. 
Most  of  the  mines  are  comparatively  yet  in  virgin  ground.  The  possibility  of  the 
output  increasing  rapidly,  is  largely  dependent  on  better  and  cheaper  methods  of 
transportation.  Hence  the  outlook  for  railway  development  is  treated  at  length.

The  tin  ore  occurs  in  Devonian  quartzite  and  quartzite-schist  and  in  quartz 
porphyry  cutting  these. 

The  Concordia  lode  is  in  a  breccia  in  a  fissure,  part  of  which  is  occupied  by 
quartz  porphyry.  Besides  cassiterite,  the  lode  carries  siderite,  tourmaline,  sphalerite, 
and  pyrite. 

The  Elisa  and  Coya  lodes  as  exposed  where  worked,  are  similar  to  the  Concordia. 

The  Monte  Blanco  mine,  besides  having  lodes,  has  schistose  quartzite,  carrying 
cassiterite  and  tourmaline  between  the  laminae. 

The  Barrosa  Cota  Mine  works  white  quartz  veins,  carrying  pyrite,  magnetite,  and 
tourmaline,  with  cassiterite  which  in  some  places  takes  the  form  of  wood  tin. 

The  San  Roque  and  La  Boliviania  mines  work  the  "  Gallofa  "  lode,  which  carries 
iron  oxide  and  pyrite,  arsenical  pyrite,  chlorite,  and  tourmaline.  There  is  no 
igneous  rock  exposed  in  the  mine. 

At  La  Unificada  Mine,  Negro  Pabellon,  the  lode  carries  cassiterite  with  iron 
oxide,  quartz  and  barite. 

Wolframite  occurs   in  veins   and   pockets   of  the   quartz   porphyry. 

in  the  Cataracagua  lode  at  Huanuni,  the  writer  thinks  the  cassiterite  may  have 
been  deposited  later  than  iron  oxides.  Little  sulphide  has  been  encountered  along 
the  lode. 

The  Morococala  mines  are  in  ah  inlier  of  quartzite  schist  in  andesite.  A  great 
flow  of  andesite  covers  much  of  the  tin-bearing  rocks  and  many  of  the  tin  mines 
are  located  around  the  edge  of  the  andesite  which,  however,  has  no  relation  to 
the  origin  of  the  tin  ores. 

The  Antequera,  Totoral,  and  Avicaya  mines  at  Chualla  Grande  are  on  impregnation 
lodes  in  quartzite  and  carry  cassiterite,  quartz,  tourmaline,  iron  pyrite,  and  less 
chalcopyrite. 

In  most  of  the  Llallagua  and  Uncia  veins,  there  is  little  impregnation  but  the 
walls  are  slickensided.  The  average  width  of  the  veins  is  about  2  feet.  They  carry 
much  iron  oxide  in  the  upper  portions;  below  that,  sulphides  of  iron,  bismuth, 
arsenic,  antimony,  a  little  silver,  and  traces  of  gold.  There  is  no  stannite.  The 
writer  considers  these  to  be  the  richest  tin  mines  in  Bolivia  and  probably  in 
the  world. 

The  San  Jose1  lode  is  2  metres  wide  and  carries  20  per  cent  tin. 

The  San  Salvadora  lode  is  2  feet  wide  and  is  said  to  carry  25  per  cent  tin  in 
dense  sulphides.  It  also  contains  values  in  bismuth  and  silver.  He  claims  that 
with  proper  handling,  the  barilla  could  be  made  as  clean  as  the  tin  concentrates 
from  the  Malay  Peninsula  and  cleaner  than  those  from  Cornwall. 

Descriptions  of  numerous  microscopic  sections  by  Charles  P.   Berkey  are  quoted.

"  Tin  ores  in  South  American  Cordilleras  are  restricted  to  a  zone  extending  from 
the  15th  to  the  21st  degree  of  latitude.  In  paragenesis  and  mode  of  occurrence 
they  offer  a  remarkable  contrast  to  the  tin  ores  of  other  countries.  The  ore  is 
seldom  in  crystals  but  usually  crypto-crystalline,  kidney-shaped,  or  compact.  The 
usual  tourmaline,  topaz,  fluorite,  apatite,  etc.,  are  almost  entirely  absent.  Instead 
of  these  the  tin  ore  is  accompanied  by  stannite  and  other  sulphides.  Frequently 
the  tin  is  restricted  to  the  upper  porti«n  of  a  vein,  its  place  being  taken  lower 
down  by  argentiferous  fahlerz,  pyrite,  and  (locally)  galena  and  sine  blende.  In 
its  geological  occurrence,  the  tin  ore  is  remarkable,  occurring  in  association,  not 
with  granite,  but  with  trachytes  and  andesites  referred  to  a  late  Cretaceous  or  early 
Tertiary  age."

In  1837  tin  was  discovered  near  Lake  Loadut,  about  110  miles  north-northeast 
of  Maulmain,  and  in  1840  the  country  north  of  the  Pakchan  River  was  reported 
to  be  the  richest  stanniferous  district  within  the  Tenasserim  provinces.  Ore  is 
found  in  the  debris  of  primitive  rocks,  and  the  range  is  said  to  be  a  continuation 
of  the  Siamese  tin  district  of  Rinowng.  In  an  hour  and  a  half  11,889  grains  of  tin 
were  collected  in  the  vicinity  of  the  coal  mines  on  Great  Tenasserim  River.

Tin  oxide  was  found  in  sand  at  Tangier  in  1868,  and  later  at  Shelbourne,  Raw- 
don  and  Country  Harbour  in  drift. 

On  the  Reeves  claim  at  New  Ross,  tin  is  found  in  a  pegmatite  dike  containing 
large  quartz  crystals,  and  is  accompanied  by  scheelite,  wolframite,  and  amblygonite. 
In  the  granites  near  New  Ross,  besides  the  minerals  named  there  have  been  found 
monazite,  one  of  th"  columbite  minerals,  durangite,  lepidolite,  hiibnerite,  molybdenite,' 
zinc  blende,  beryl,  apatite,  tourmaline,  fluorite,  pyrolusite,  manganite,  limonite,

pyrites,  and  arsenical  pyrites.  Quartz  crystals  reach  27  inches  long  and  10  inches 
thick. 

The  amount  of  tin  so  far  shown  seems  to  be  insignificant.  Traces  of  tin  were 
found  in  pegmatite  6  miles  south  of  Reeves  claim.  Bismuthinite  and  molybdenite 
were  found  in  a  dike  of  quartz  and  aplite  1  mile  south  of  New  Rosa  corner.

The  first   two  occur  in  quartz  veins  in  white  granite  dikes  cutting  granite.     The 
veins    carry    cassiterite,    wolframite,    molybdenite,    arsenopyrite,    pyrite    and    a    little 
tourmaline.     The  other   three  are   quartz  veins  cutting  slates,    and   are   accompanied 
by  much  more  tourmaline,   arsenopyrite  and  pyrite. 
At  Papkuilsfontein  an  assay  from  one  vein  showed: 
Sn  =  12.9  per  cent. 
Bi  =  0.27         " 
Cu  =  trace.

Development  has  not  yet  been  sufficient  to  allow  much  valuable  generalization  or 
prediction  regarding  these  deposits.  The  Carolina  tin  belt  however,  appears  to  offer 
a  promising  field  for  exploration. 

"  The  tin  ore  occurs  in  pegmatite  dikes  which  cut  across  amphibolites  and  meta- 
morphosed sediments.  There  are  two  varieties  of  pegmatite.  One  composed  almost 
exclusively  of  quartz  and  microcline,  appears  to  carry  no  tin.  The'  other,  which  is 
tin  bearing,  is  characterized  by  muscovite  in  various  forms,  and  plagioclase  feld- 
spar, when  any  feldspar  is  present.  Author  believes  the  pegmatites  are  of  igneous 
origin,  and  that  the  cassiterite  is  a  primary  constituent.  What  caused  the  segrega- 
tion of  tin  ore  in  certain  parts  of  the  dike  is  not  known." — H.  Ries.

red  clay,  contained  sometimes  in  fissures  of  limestone,  sometimes  in  the  neighbor- 
ing accumulations  of  soils.  Resources  of  district  in  tin  cannot  easily  be  estimated. 
Deposits  liable  to  run  out  suddenly.  Difficult  to  define  probable  depth.  Production 
limited  by  small  amount  of  available  water.

Cassiterite  occurs  in  nearly  vertical  lodes  at  the  junction  of  a  massif  of  pegmatoid 
granite  with  tourmaline  quartzites,  mica  schists,  etc.  Gold  and  copper  deposits 
occur  not  far  away.  Stanniferous  area  is  rugged  and  veins  sometimes  crop  out  in 
the  ravines,  but  are  usually  hidden  by  debris  containing  cassiterite  pebbles  up  to 
several  pounds  in  .weight,  which  are  frequently  well  crystallized.

Remarkable  deposits  in  the  Congo  are  being  developed,  and  will  be  largely  pro- 
ductive when  railway  communication  is  available.  The  tin  belt  extends  for  a  hun- 
dred miles  in  a  northeast  and  southwest  direction  from  the  Lualaba  to  the  Lufira 
rivers  just  north  of  a  range  of  granite  hills.  Cassiterite  has  been  found  as  alluvial 
wash  in  a  number  of  places.  Wash  consists  of  angular  fragments  of  pinkish  quartz 
mixed  with  tourmaline,  tourmaline  schists  and  schorl  rock.  Cassiterite  contains 
from  63.5  to  65  per  cent  tin,  unmixed  with  other  metals.

discovery  at  the  Busanga  Tin  Mine,  three-quarters  of  a  mile  from  the  junction  of  the 
Lufupa  and  Lualaba  rivers.  Cassiterite  occurs  in  quartz  veins  too  poor  to  work.

seem  to  indicate  the  presence  of  workable  deposits,  and  deserves  further  study,  for 
it  is  known  that  tin  is  a  metal  very  easily  extracted,  and  that  its  value  is  suffi-

The  tin  at  Wheal  Prosper,  Cornwall,  is  doubtless  the  lowest  grade  of  any  in  the 
world,  yet  is  being  worked  with  profit.  Ore  runs  3  pounds  black  tin  per  ton  of 
ore,  or  about  0.13  per  cent.  Prof.  C.  Le  Neve  Foster  gives  following  reasons: 

1.  Rock  soft  and  friable,  easily  stamped. 

2.  Tin  in   large  grains,  hence  fine  stamping  is  not  necessary. 

3.  The    light  specific   gravity   of    substances   mixed    with    tin,    make    separation    by 
water   easy.

second  at  750  feet  seen  about  Camelford,  and  at  foot  of  Delabole  Hill,  third  at  a 
little  less  than  1000  feet,  first  recognized  on  Davidstow  Moor.  Superficial  deposits 
which  bear  tin  above  750  feet  platform  differ  very  much  in  places  from  those 
below.  Here  ancient  wash  is  preserved,  perhaps  protected,  from  denudation  which 
has  destroyed  them  below  this  level.  The  deposits  are  not  so  concentrated  as  the 
stream-sorted  material  below.  Deposits  have  been  worked  in  the  past,  but  on 
account  of  difficulty  of  separating  wolframite,  were  abandoned.  Since  that  difficulty 
has  been  removed,  the  industry  is  reviving,  and  the  wolframite  is  more  valuable 
than  the  tin  ore.

It  is  worked  for  three  and  one-half  miles,  and  consists  of  a  leader  or  true  fissure 
vein  only  a  few  inches  wide  carrying  tin  and  copper  ores;  a  lode  from  4  to  15  feet 
wide  on  one  or  both  sides  of  the  leader,  mostly  of  tourmaline  rock,  carrying 
1  to  3  per  cent  of  tin;  a  capel  of  only  slightly  stanniferous  tourmaline  rock 
separates  the  lode  from  the  slate  or  granite.  There  is  an  absence  of  wall  or  plane 
of  separation  between  the  lode  and  capel  or  the  capel  and  granite.  Thinks  the

Although  areas  surveyed  have  been  extensive  mining  districts,  few  mines  are 
still  active.  Tin  streaming  in  original  sense  of  the  term,  is  practically  a  thing 
of  the  past.  Mines  operated  with  modern  machinery.  Last  few  years  the  debris 
from  mine  burrows  have  been  put  under  stamps,  more  especially  those  mines

Tin  was  not  known  to  exist  in  France  until  1809,  and  it  was  not  until  1817  that 
a  deposit  was  discovered.  This  was  found  by  a  marine  officer,  and  Dufrfinoy  was 
sent  to  examine  it.  The  tin  ore  occurs  at  the  junction  of  granite  and.  slate  and

Found  slag  with  small  grains  of  crystalline  tin  near  old  excavations.  Con- 
sidered to  be  product  of  ancient  smelting.  Found  veins  near  by  containing  tin. 
Veins  cut  upper  Silurian  metamorphic  rocks.  They  consist  of  quartz  with  musco- 
vite,  cassiterite,  tourmaline,  etc.  Cassiterite  where  vein  is  most  micaceous.  Thinks 
work  was  done  by  Gauls  before  Roman  conquest.  Location:  between  Abbaretz

Though  department  of  Lozere  is  rich  in  metalliferous  veins,  tin  ore  has  not 
hitherto  been  recorded  there.  Author  discovered  a  vein  close  to  Great  Monastier 
fault,  in  parish  of  Barjac.  Country  rock  is  mica  schist,  vein  dips  60°,  and 
is  7%  feet  thick  at  outcrop.  The  gangue  consists  chiefly  of  barytes  and  quartz; 
between  these  is  a  thin  band  of  cassiterite  barely  1  inch  thick  with  which  are 
closely  associated  pyrolusite  and  wolframite.

Near  Schwarzenberg,  in  the  Western  Erzgebirge  a  dome  of  augen-gneiss  forms 
the  basement-rock  which  is  mantled  by  mica-schist;  on  the  north  conformably 
overlain  by  phyllites  but  faulted  against  them  on  the  south.  All  broken  through 
by  granite-dikes.  In  the  altered  schists  occur  two  concentric  ore  belts  intimately 
associated  with  crystalline  limestone,  dolomite  and  skarn  (sahlite-actinolite-rock). 
Magnetite  occurs  in  regular  beds  or  inter-stratified  with  the  limestone.  Red 
and  brown  hematite  beds  are  altered  from  magnetite.  Other  ores  are  in  two  dis-

In  district  north  of  Teplitz,  Archaean  rocks  of  the  Erzgebirge  are  cut  by  quartz-

granitic  intrusion,  but  that  the  conditions  that  originated  them,  acted  further 
away  than  those  of  the  tin  veins.

The  Fichtelgebirge  played  a  considerable  role  in  the  earlier  historic  and  in  pre- 
historic time  as  a  source  of  tin.  The  tin  bearing  rocks  appear  in  exactly  the 
same  relations  and  with  the  same  paragenesis  as  in  the  cases  of  better  known 
sources  of  tin.  Most  of  the  former  mining  operations  were  confined  to  the  working 
of  placers.  At  the  villages  Schonlind  and  Weissenhaid,  six  tin  lodes  were 
uncovered.  There  appears  to  have  been  a  further  vein-like  occurrence  which  is 
shown  by  float  ore  at  Seehause  in  the  Schneebergkette.  The  prospect  of  again 
carrying  on  placer  mining  is  very  slight.

Econ.  Geol.,  Vol.  5,  1910,  Lancaster,  pp.  166-177,  265-272,  figs.  2.  (geol.  maps) 
and  1  plate. 

The  tin  deposits  are  grouped  around  two  belts  of  granite  cutting  across  the 
Erzgebirge,  between  Saxony  and  Bohemia.  Around  the  eastern  belt  are  the  tin 
mines  of  Sadisberg,  Altenberg,  Zinnwald,  and  Graupen,  and  around  the  western 
are  those  of  Schneeberg,  Annaberg,  Joachimstahl,  etc. 

At  Sadisdorf  a  stockwork  of  veinlets  has  made  zwitter  of  the  granite — the  feld- 
spars having  been  replaced  by  topaz  and  quartz.  Cassiterite,  fluorspar,  pyrite,  arseno- 
pyrite,  chalcopyrite,  chalcocite  and  cuprite  have  been  impregnated  in  the  granite. 
An  eighteen-foot  quartz  vein  carrying  fluorspar,  wolframite,  molybdenite,  and  zinn- 
waldite  cuts  the  granite.  At  Altenberg  is  a  similar  zwitter  which  extends  down- 
ward about  700  feet.  It  carries  an  average  of  about  0.3  per  cent  tin  and  0.002 
per  cent  of  bismuth.  At  Zinnwald  quartz  veins  1%  to  2  feet  thick  carrying 
cassiterite  and  wolframite  (which  is  more  important),  with  zinnwaldite,  are 
worked.  At  Graupen  the  Luxer  vein,  now  worked,  contains  white  quartz  which 
in  places  gives  way  to  coarsely  crystalline  orthoclase  and  albite  and  to  fluorspar. 
Cassiterite,  lithium  mica,  wolframite,  chalcopyrite,  and  galena  are  the  other 
vein  minerals. 

At  Geyer  zwitter  bands  are  mined.  At  the  Leier  Mine  north  of  Geyer  a  greisen 
dike  3  feet  wide,  locally  carrying  1  per  cent  tin,  and  tin-bearing  veins  are  worked. 
The  ores  carry  nearly  30  per  cent  of  iron  and  arsenic.  At  Sauberg,  tin  veins  occur  in 
gneissic  mica  schist.  No  granite  has  been  encountered.  There  are  five  groups  which 
consist  of  3  to  15  parallel  veins  each,  1  to  3  feet  apart,  and  from  2  to  10  inches  wide. 
They  carry  much  arsenopyrite  and  some  wolframite.  At  one  place  they  are  faulted 
by  a  silver  cobalt  vein. 

The  deposits  on   the   Austrian   side   are  not  described.

Although  ores  of  tin  do  occur  in  parts  of  the  Indian  Peninsula,  there  is  at  present 
time  no  deposit  large  enough  to  warrant  working  to  any  great  extent.  Localities

serim which  extends  from  Y£  to  Maleewoon,  a  distance  of  about  400  miles.  Sources 
of  stream  tin,  which  is  found  in  the  majority  of  rivers  of  this  district,  are  in  range 
of  hills  separating  British  Tenasserim  from  Siam.  An  attempt  was  made  by  a 
British  company  at  Maleewoon  to  work  deposits,  but  it  resulted  in  loss.  Working  of 
ore  is  carried  on  by  Chinese,  Shans  a/id  Burmese.

sand  in  a  quantity  at  all  approaching  that  in  which  it  existed  in  the  specimen 
examined,  it  would  probably  richly  repay  the  labor  and  expense  of  collection  and 
smelting.  The  fact  of  the  existence  of  tinstone  in  such  considerable  quantity  in  these 
auriferous  streams,  would  seem  to  indicate  the  probable  existence  somewhere  in  the 
surrounding  district  of  masses  of  ore,  and  possibly  forming  the  continuation  of  those

These  stanniferous  deposits  differ  from  all  others  known,  for  they  do  not  appear 
to  be  associated  with  eruptives,  but  occur  in  limestone  with  hematite.  Campiglia  is 
12^  miles  from  Massa  Marittima,  18  miles  from  Elba  and  about  same  distance  from 
borax-producing  localities  of  Larderello  and  Castelnuovo.  Ore  deposits  extend  in  belt 
of  over  3  miles  from  Monte  Valerio  to  Monte  Calvi.  1*4  miles  southwest  of  town  are 
tin  ores,  2  miles  northwest  are  sulphide-ores — argentiferous-galena,  pale  and  dark  zinc- 
blende,  pyrite  and  chalcopyrite.  Ores  intimately  associated  with  cordierite-bearing 
quartz  trachyte,  epidote,  chlorite,  ilvaite,  manganiferous  pyroxene,  quartz,  and 
fluorspar,  separated  from  tin-deposits  by  Marmi  valley.  These  ores  are  eruptive  and 
metasomatic.  No  tin  in  them.  Tin  deposits  are  on  Monte  Valerio  and  Monte  Funi- 
acchio.  Country-rock  gray  or  pinkish  marble,  probably  Middle  Lias,  overlain  by 
variegated  Upper  Lias  slates,  with  quartz  nodules.  No  eruptives  to  be  seen  here. 
Tin  ore  in  limonite  in  fissures  in  slates  and  very  irregular  metasomatic  masses  in 
limestone.  Thinks  ores  are  not  of  secondary  concentration  and  are  not  a  stanniferous 
gossan.  Gangue  is  calcite  and  kaolin.  None  of  ordinary  accompanying  minerals  of 
tin.  Copper  ores  of  Boceheggiano  and  Massa  Marittima  are  stanniferous.

Quartz-trachytes,  some  of  them  bearing  tourmaline,  and  tourmaline-granite  cut  gray 
and  white  limestones  of  lower  Liassic.  Metalliferous  deposits  in  more  direct  contact 
with  trachyte  than  with  granite.  At  Campo  Alle  Buche  at  the  contact  of  the  granite 
and  gray  limestone  are  masses  of  hematite,  limonite,  carbonate  of  lead  and  traces  of 
cassiterite.  At  Mor.te  Valerio  are  notable  deposits  of  tin  with  the  iron  ore  in  the 
white  Lower  Lias  limestone.  At  the  Cento  Camerelle  tin  and  iron  ores  occur  in  the 
red  Middle  Lias  limestone  and  continue  into  Lower  Lias.  Are  in  a  horizontal  vein 
with  tin  ore  in  lower  part  of  ore-body.  Trachyte  changes  to  pyroxenite  with  epidote 
and  garnet  in  contact  with  limestone  country-rock.  Ore  deposits  same  age  as  intru- 
sives,  post-Eocene,  not  later  than  upper  Miocene.  The  sulphides  are  probably  the 
outcome  of  infiltration  of  siliceous  metalliferous  solutions,  possibly  (after  Vogt  and  De 
Launay)  from  magmatic  segregation.  Iron  and  cassiterite  come  from  oxidation  of 
sulphides.  Cassiterite  probably  carried  from  granite  by  alkaline  carbonate  solutions 
with  carbonate  of  iron  which  was  later  decomposed  into  oxide.

Tin  veins  an  inch  or  two  in  thickness,  traverse  an  impure  gray  micaceous  lime- 
stone. Gangue  consists  of  purple  fluorspar,  and  silvery  white  mica  with  quartz, 
through  which  the  cassiterite  associated  with  mispickel,  is  disseminated  in  small 
crystalline  masses.

occurrence  of  tin  ore,  and  the  manner  of  mining  by  Chinese  and  Malays.  Author 
believes  the  mining  in  all  of  the  districts  is  in  its  infancy,  and  with  better  roads, 
.and  the  clearing  of  streams,  rendering  transportation  easier,  many  of  the  deposits 
now  neglected  could  be  worked  with  profit.  There  is  at  least  7,680  acres  of  actual 
alluvial  ground,  which  under  ordinary  circumstances,  will  afford  work  to  25,000  miners 
for  the  next  hundred  years.

Memoir  result  of  seven  months  exploration  in  the  Malay  State  of  Perak.  Perak, 
although  only  95  by  50  miles  in  dimensions,  having  an  area  of  less  than  5000  square 
miles,  has  long  been  known  as  a  tin  producing  country,  but  only  since  the  influx  of 
Chinese  has  it  been  of  first  rate  importance.  Mines  worked  at  present,  chiefly  alluvial, 
water-courses  being  filled  writh  sand  and  gravel  deposits  to  a  depth  of  20  or  30  feet, 
resting  upon  a  floor  of  pure  china  clay,  apparently  derived  from  decomposition  of  the 
granitic  rocks.  Geological  description  necessarily  imperfect,  owing  to  the  dense 
tropical  vegetation  which  covers  the  entire  country.  Author  has  been  able  to  estab- 
lish the  presence  of  numerous  quartz  veins  traversing  the  granite  which  is  coarsely 
porphyritic  in  the  center  and  largely  charged  with  tourmaline  at  the  edges  of  the 
masses,  reproducing  the  conditions  to  be  found  in  the  northwestern  tin  districts  of 
Cornwall.  Ore  very  pure,  free  from  wolframite,  arsenic,  etc.,  which  is  troublesome  to 
the  Cornish  miner.  No  vein  mines  have  yet  been  opened.  Methods  of  working,  very 
primitive.  Great  improvement  of  mining  conditions  under  British  rule.

Description  and  cost  of  working  the  mines  of  Kuantan,  Pahang,  the  principal  lode 
mine  of  the  Federated  Malay  States.  These  mines,  so  report  says,  were  worked  100 
years.  The  open  cast  system  was  the  only  one  adopted  by  the  old  miners.  Under 
native  management  (at  least  within  recent  years)  the  mines  were  not  a  financial 
success.  Good  outlook  for  increased  output  under  European  management.

derived  from  the  mountain  ranges;  that  is,  in  mining  language,  in  stream  works. 
The  ore  has  been  traced  up  to  veins  in  the  rock,  but  these  have  not  hitherto  been 
worked.  The  tin  beds  are  composed  of  the  debris  of  granitic  rocks  mixed  with  the

About  60  per  cent  of  the  world's  supply  of  tin  comes  from  Straits  Settlement.  In 
the  past  most  of  it  has  been  obtained  from  alluvial  deposits,  and  while  the  placers 
appear  to  be  unfailing,  much  attention  is  now  given  to  lode  mining.  Alluvial  mining 
is  carried  on  largely  on  the  west  side  of  the  Peninsula,  while  lode  mining  is  confined 
to  east  side.

Reviews  the  commonly  accepted  theories  concerning  the  deposition  of  tin  minerals. 
He  doubts  the  analysis  of  Meunier  showing  tin  oxide  in  siliceous  sinter  from  Ayer 
Panas  (see  No.  705),  and  states  that  his  examination  of  deer-horns  similar  to  those 
supposed  by  J.  H.  Collins  to  have  been  partly  replaced  by  SnOo,  showed  no  tin. 

Numerous  tin  deposits  of  the  Malay  Peninsula  are  in  limestone  or  clay-slate,  but 
granite  is  supposed  to  be  close  at  hand  in  each  place.  At  Bundi,  in  Kemaman,  a  tin 
deposit  in  which  the  SnC>2  is  in  small  yellow  needles,  carries  no  tourmaline,  but 
there  is  some  axinite. 

Most  of  the  deposits  are  veins,  large  or  small,  but  there  are  a  few  tin-bearing 
pegmatites  in  the  Malay  Peninsula. 

Shows  that  in  many  places  in  the  Malay  Peninsula,  especially  in  the  limestone 
region,  there  is  very  little  tourmaline,  but  generally  much  fluorspar  with  the  tin 
deposits.  He  believes  fluorine  to  be  more  important  than  boron  in  the  genesis  of  tin 
minerals.  There  is  also  much  arsenopyrite  in  the  limestone,  more  than  when  the 
deposits  are  in  granite.

NEW  SOUTH  WALES  (Continued) 

Part  1  describes  the  physiography;  part  2,  the  general  geology;  part  3  treats  of 
the  genesis  of  the  ore  deposits;  part  4,  of  the  petrology,  and  part  5  contains  additional 
notes  on  the  ore  deposits. 

Permo-carboniferous  slates  were  intruded  by  granite  accompanied  by  pegmatite, 
eurite,  micrographic  dikes  and  quartz  veins  and  masses.  Many  of  the  younger 
accompanying  rocks  carry  tin,  tungsten,  and  bismuth  minerals,  molybdenite,  mona- 
zite,  gold  and  allied  minerals.  Most  of  the  New  England  ore  deposits  are  considered 
to  have  been  formed  by  magmatic  segregations,  in  which  are  included  those  formed 
from  heated  gases  or  waters.  The  ores  are  arranged  peripherally  around  acid  granite 
massifs.  The  Gulf  tin  deposits  occur  as  pipes  formed  at  the  intersection  of  fissures 
some  of  which  are  of  very  irregular  form.  The  deposits  contain  arsenical  pyrites, 
tourmaline,  fluorspar,  beryl,  monazite,  bismuth,  and  wolframite.  At  Kingsgate, 
pipes  18  inches  to  40  feet  in  diameter  carry  molybdenite  in  masses  up  to  one  ton  in 
weight,  bismuth,  bismuthinite,  and  bismuth  carbonate,  and  at  Tabletop,  Timbarra, 
pipes  carry  gold  in  sufficient  quantity  to  pay  for  working,  but  at  neither  place  are 
they  tin  bearing.  The  pipes  are  all  formed  through  replacement  of  the  granite  by 
solutions  following  very  small  cracks.  At  Tingha  tin  occurs  in  "a  eurite  vein," 
pegmatite  and  pipes,  with  chalcedony,  and  quartz;  in  the  Emerald  mines  at  Emma- 
ville,  in  quartz  veins  with  white  mica,  emeralds,  and  fluorspar  cutting  carboniferous 
(?)  slates;  at  Giant's  Den,  in  quartz  veins  with  tourmaline,  topaz,  and  chalcopyrite, 
cutting  greisen;  at  Pheasant  Creek  with  wolframite,  in  greisen  and  "mica  rock"; 
in  the  Inverell  District  with  abundant  topaz,  in  greisen;  at  Deepwater  with  wolfram- 
ite and  iron  pyrites  in  greisen;  at  Wilson'g  Downfall  with  huge  quartz  crystals  and 
platy  wolframite  in  greisen  and  granite;  at  Bald  Nob  in  fissure  veins;  at  Silent 
Grove  in  a  granular  quartz  vein  with  bismuth  and  galena.  At  Howell  stannite  occurs 
in  the  Conrad  and  King  Conrad  reefs  with  argentiferous  galena  and  sphalerite.

more  kinds  of  minerals,  which  have  a  good  market  value.  All  previous  work  along 
this  foreshore  was  confined  to  the  recovery  of  gold  and  tin.  It  has  now  been  found 
that  minerals  of  equal  value  exist  in  the  concentrates.  Other  parties  are  also  working 
the  beach  sands.

Principal  alluvial  deposits  in  New  South  Wales  are  situated  about  400  miles  north 
of  Sydney,  on  western  slope  of  the  great  dividing  range.  Alluvial  deposits  said  to  be 
practically  exhausted.  Tin  has  been  found  in  veins  in  the  Emmaville  district,  the 
principal  one  being  the  Oetery  mine.

In  author's  report  to  the  Colonial  Secretary,  he  drew  attention  for  the  first  time  to 
the  probable  occurrence  of  extensive  deposits  of  tin  ore.  He  then  stated  that 
"  wolfram  and  oxide  of  tin  with  tourmaline,  occur  near  Dundee  and  in  Paradise 
Creek,  and  it  is  probable  that  this  ore  of  tin  is  plentifully  distributed  in  the  alluvial 
of  other  tracts  as  I  have  found  it  amidst  the  spinelle,  rubies,  oriental  emeralds,

States  that  it  occurs  in  considerable  quantity  in  the  Conrad  mines,  New  South  Wales, 
and  the  Oonah  Mine  (Zeehan)  and  at  Heemskirk,  Tasmania.  In  the  Conrad  mine 
stannite  occurs  in  a  quartz  vein  cutting  granite  and  is  accompanied  by  argentiferous 
galena,  zinc  blende,  chalcopyrite  and  arsenical  pyrites.  Cassiterite  occurs  in  the 
granite,  but  rarely  if  ever  in  the  vein.  At  Oonah  stannite  occurs  with  bismuthinite, 
wolframite,  galena,  pyrite,  and  zinc  blende  in  a  vein  between  quartzite  and  graphitic 
schist,  and  closely  connected  with  galena  deposits.  Stannite  at  both  places  is  argentif- 
erous. Discusses  difficulties  of  treatment.

Review:    Amer.  Geol.,  Vol.  1,  1888,  Minneapolis,  p.  122. 

Gives  a  history  of  tin-mining  in  New  South  Wales;  physiography,  meteorology; 
geology;  mineralogy,  etc.  Much  of  the  country  is  covered  by  basalt  up  to  300  feet 
thick,  averaging  200  feet.  In  places,  stanniferous  stream  gravels  covered  by  the  basalt 
have  to  be  crushed  before  the  tin  can  be  obtained. 

Siluro-Devonian  sediments  are  intruded  by  quartz  felsite  dikes  and  granite,  probably 
of  Permian  age.  The  tin  deposits  are  associated  with  this  granite.  The  stanniferous 
gravels  both  exposed  and  lava-covered  are  described  in  detail.  Some  of  the  stream  tin 
is  only  1/70  of  an  inch  in  diameter  but  shows  sharp  crystal  edges.  Sapphire,  topaz, 
zircon,  spinel,  garnet,  magnetite  and  ilmenite  are  found  in  the  placers.  Gold  is  also 
found  in  small  quantities. 

Ninety  veins  and  stockworks  are  described. 

Quartz  is  found  in  69  veins;  chlorite  in  29;  feldspar  in  20;  mica  and  arsenopyrite 
each  in  8;  pyrite  and  fluorspar,  each  in  4;  tourmaline  and  wolframite,  each  in  3; 
zinc  blende,  galena,  chalcopyrite,  bismuth,  molybdenite,  vesuvianite  and  stilbite, 
each  in  2;  hematite,  p3Trhotite,  manganese,  scheelite  and  beryl,  each  in  one  vein. 

The  veins  range  up  to  3  feet  in  thickness. 

Gold,  silver,  lead  and  copper  occur  in  veins  of  the  neighborhood.  Silver  is  in 
commercial  quantity.

Tin  ore  has  been  known  for  some  years  in  auriferous  conglomerates  at  the  base  of 
the  coal  measures  at  Lankey's  Creek,  Reefton,  Milford  and  Dusky  sounds  on  the  west 
coast  of  Otago.  In  1888  tin  ore  was  found  in  gravels,  and  in  situ  "  associated  with 
gneissic  granitoid  rocks "  in  the  Remarkable  Mountains,  Stewart  Island.  Deposits 
small,  climate  wet.  In  April,  1892,  stream  tin  was  found  in  the  gold  wash  at 
Humphrey's  Gulley,  near  Hokitika,  on  the  west  coast  of  the  South  Island.

dividend  payer,  even  the  famous  Mt.  Bischoff  mine.  During  1905,  production  was  at 
the  rate  of  130  tons  of  black  tin  per  month.  Description  of  mine  is  from  report  by 
Walter  E.  Cameron,  Asst.  Geol.  of  the  Queensland  mines  department.

loss,  either  owing  to  local  poverty  of  the  ground  or  to  the  escape  of  tinstone  with 
the  tailings.  Nevertheless,  the  hope  is  entertained  that  the  ground  may  yet  be

Alluvial  tin  was  first  discovered  in  Herberton  district,  North  Queensland,  "  some- 
time ago,"  and  afterwards  rich  deposits  were  found  on  Wild  River.  Older  alluvial 
deposits  were  later  discovered  in  the  Herberton  lowland,  at  Watsonville,  Irvinebank, 
and  still  later,  very  rich  and  extensive  tin  ore  deposits  were  found  in  Silver  Valley 
near  Herberton.  The  ores  of  these  deposits  contain  on  an  average,  4  per  cent  of 
bismuth,  3  to  8  per  cent  of  copper  and  considerable  tungsten.  The  tin-bearing  terri- 
tory has  now  been  shown  to  extend  over  an  area  of  12,000  square  miles.

granite.  The  alluvial  beds  vary  in  thickness  from  3  to  20  feet.  Outlook  very 
encouraging;  the  greatest  difficulty  to  overcome  will  be  the  swampy  character  of  the

Tin  is  found  both  in  massive  and  stratified  rocks.  Lode  mining  has  been  extended 
from  Herberton  as  a  center  westward  to  Watsonville,  Irvinebank,  Eureka  Creek  and 
Koorboora,  southwest  to  Coolgarra,  Glenlinedale  and  California  Creek.  Alluvial  ore 
occurs  from  Herberton  to  the  Tate  River  and  Fossilbrook,  a  distance  of  80  miles.  In 
the  neighborhood  of  Herberton,  the  tin  bearing  rock  is  mostly  porphyry  at  the  out- 
crop, but  of  a  granitoid  structure  in  depth;  hornblende  is  in  places  a  constituent. 
Quotes  R.  L.  Jack  in  describing  tin  bearing  veins  as  metamorphosed  dikes,  probably 
originally  diorite,  now  mainly  of  quartzose  chlorite  and  quartzose  serpentine.  In  depth 
veins  develop  more  quartz.  Ore  is  cassiterite,  mostly  in  lenticular  deposits,  reaching 
a  length  of  40  and  50  feet,  and  in  depth  from  a  few  inches  to  several  hundred  feet. 
Yield  ranges  from  5  to  40  per  cent  oxide.  Wolframite,  fluorspar,  galena  and  molyb- 
denite occasionally  accompany  the  tin.  Alluvial  tin  is  derived  from  open  gullies  and 
gravels  now  covered  by  lava.  Ilmenite  and  gem  stones  sometimes  accompany  ore.

Tin-field  comprises  large  area  between  Murray  and  Mitta-mitta  rivers.  Bed  rock  is 
granite  of  various  kinds,  mostly  coarse  with  black  and  white  mica  in  large  plates. 
Deposit  varies  from  few  inches  to  2  or  3  feet  thick.  Wash  dirt  made  up  of  boulders 
and  angular  fragments  of  granite  and  quartz.  Ore  is  disseminated  all  through  wash, 
and  also  in  layers,  but  more  plentiful  on  or  near  bed  rock.  No  lodes  of  workable  size 
found.  Lists  of  principal  claims  given.

Rec.  Mines,  South  Australia,  1900,  Adelaide,  p.  6. 

The  tin  discovery  is  situated  !*/&  miles  south  of  Earea  Dam,  on  a  mud  lake  where 
the  surface  sand  and  loam  have  been  eroded,  and  expose  granite,  diorite  and  other 
hornblendic  rocks  containing  quartz.  A  dishful  of  the  alluvial  soil  over  the  tin  vein 
outcrop  yielded  1  pound,  10  ounces  of  tin;  on  being  smelted,  it  gave  1  pound  tin  or 
90  per  cent.  Prospectors  have  sunk  in  the  quartz  veins,  but  would  probably  meet 
with  more  success  in  prospecting  for  alluvial  tin.

Proc.  Colorado  Sci.  Soc.,  Vol.  3,  1890,  Denver,  pp.  347-350. 

A  good  article  upon  the  general  geology  of  the  deposits.  Thinks  there  are  two 
kinds  of  deposits:  (1)  original  in  the  granites;  (2)  secondary  in  quartz  veins.  Says 
the  granite  (i.  e.  pegmatite)  is  pre-Cambrian. 

"  States  that  the  earliest  identification  of  tin  from  the  Black  Hills  was  in  1876  by 
Mr.  Richard  Pearce  of  Denver,  Colo.,  who  detected  cassiterite  as  stream  tin  in  gold 
dust  from  the  Northern  Hills.  The  second  discovery  was  made  on  Elk  Gulch, 
southern  section,  in  April,  1877.  The  material  from  the  latter  place  was  assayed  by 
Theo.  Vosburg,  but  the  true  nature  of  the  bullion  was  first  recognized  by  Mr.  Fred  J. 
Cross.  Dates  of  various  other  discoveries  and  re.marks  on  the  general  geology  of  the 
region  are  also  given."  (Digest  by  Cleophas  C.  O'Harra.)

Abstract:    Mg.  World,  Vol.  31,   1909,   Chicago,  pp.  457-460. 

Cassiterite  occurs  in  the  southern  Black  Hills  in  pegmatite  dikes  and  in  quartz 
veins.  The  quartz  veins  also  carry  important  amounts  of  wolframite  which  some- 
times forms  beautiful  intergrowths  with  light  colored  cassiterite.  Many  other 
minerals  occur  in  the  pegmatites  with  the  cassiterite,  including  spodumene,  ambly- 
gonite,  lepidolite,  apatite,  tantalite,  columbite,  pyrite,  arsenopyrite,  chalcopyrite, 
tourmaline,  etc.,  but  there  is  little  or  no  fluorite,  topaz,  or  axinite.  The  dikes  which 
carry  most  tin  are  the  finer-grained  and  carry  the  least  number  of  accessory  minerals. 
The  quartz  veins  are  probably  a  later  phase  of  the  same  intrusions  which  formed  the 
pegmatites,  and  the  two  grade  into  each  other. 

In  the  northern  Black  Hills,  at  Tinton,  tin  occurs  in  pegmatites,  similar  to  those 
in  the  southern  Hills,  but  with  fewer  accessory  minerals.

This  district  is  of  unusual  interest,  as  in  it  occur  both  mines  of  gold  and  tin. 
The  gold  miners  'were  greatly  hampered  in  their  sluicing,  by  the  abundant  occurrence 
of  black  sand  and  small  pebbles  of  high  specific  gravity  which  filled  riffles  and  caused 
loss  of  gold.  About  1880  it  was  discovered  that  this  sand— at  least  part  of  it,  was 
cassiterite.  Other  minerals  of  economic  importance  in  this  district  are,  wolframite 
and  columbite-tantalite.

A  new  district  has  been  worked  for  past  two  years,  located  partly  in  Lawrence 
Co.,  South  Dakota,  and  partly  in  Crook  Co.,  Wyoming.  Caseiterite  occurs  in  peg- 
matite greisen  or  altered  granite,  and  is  generally  in  the  form  of  coarse  granules, 
although  large  masses  of  fine  grains  of  the  mineral  are  found  between  the  schist  and 
porphyry.  Ore  has  averaged  1  per  cent  of  metallic  tin,  and  concentrates  have  ranged 
from  62.5  to  65  per  cent  of  metallic  tin.

Lodes  occur  in  slate  and  schists  surrounding  Harney  Peak,  which  is  of  granite.  In 
almost  all  instances  lodes  or  ledges  are  either  vertical  or  dipping  away  from  the

No  systematic  mining  or  quarrying  has  been  attempted  on  these  tin  deposits.  The 
work  has  been  carried  on  mainly  by  agricultural  laborers  and  women  and  children. 
The  ore  occurs  in  a  strata  of  soil,  clay,  decomposed  shale,  sand  and  pebbles.  The 
soft  character  of  this  tin  ground  would  admit  of  cheap  working,  the  only  essential 
dressing  machinery  being  perhaps  washing  and  sizing  trommels  and  automatic  jigs. 
There  can  be  no  doubt  that  these  tin  deposits  would  pay  to  work  on  a  considerable 
scale.

At  Martinamor  veins  are  in  gneiss,  at  other  places  they  are  in  Silurian  slates,  more 
or  less  dark,  gray,  greenish,  brown,  blue.  Veins  are  principally  quartz,  carrying 
tourmaline,  wolframite,  some  arsenopyrite  and  copper  sulphide.  Veins  running  in 
different  directions  are  without  noticeable  difference  in  mineralization.  Some  greisen 
dikes  carry  up  to  9  per  cent  tin.  One  vein  at  Terubiaa  gave  25  kilos  per  cubic 
metre  of  40  per  cent  tin  ore.  This  vein  is  1600  metres  long.  Some  60  per  cent  ore 
was  obtained.

According  to  British  Consular  Report  No.  1996,  Annual  series,  the  Ryan  Tin  Com- 
pany did  a  good  deal  of  work  in  1896,  and  in  the  first  six  months  produced  upward 
of  260  tons  of  black  tin.  Machinery  has  been  erected.  Great  drawback  to  working 
tin  and  coal  deposits  of  territory  is  lack  of  transportation  facilities.

The  Ryan  tin  works  near  Embabaan  in  the  northeast  part  of  Swaziland,  are  the 
only  important  deposits  of  the  country.  Sn02  occurs  in  pegmatite  dikes  cutting 
granite  near  the  contact  of  the  latter  with  various  schists,  and  in  placers  derived 
from  the  dikes,  accompanied  by  corundum,  monazite,  magnetite,  etc.  Crystals  of 
cassiterite  are  so  distorted  as  to  appear  monoclinic.  Does  not  think  the  outlook  good 
for  very  large  placers.

formation  is  granite,  which  is  overlain  in  places  by  schistose  rocks,  and  the  tin- 
bearing  veins  occur  near  the  contact.  Three  lodes  have  been  discovered.

rhyolite."  From  January,  1894,  to  June,  1896,  exported  about  600  tons  of  ore.  Deposits 
mostly  alluvial,  average  thickness  of  beds  41/&  feet,  though  on  Lower  Embabaan  and

The  Ryan  Tin  Company  has  done  a  good  deal  of  work  during  1896.  First  6 
months,  by  sluicing  process,  upwards  of  260  tons  of  tin  were  produced,  valued  at 
about  £45  sterling  per  ton.  During  latter  half  of  year,  about  20,000  tons  of  tin- 
bearing  gravel  was  exposed.  Tin  reefs  have  been  discovered,  and  further  prospecting 
is  being  undertaken.

The  Stanley  River  tin  field  is  20  miles  north  of  Zeehan,  Tasmania,  on  the  west 
'coast.  A  road  has  just  been  finished  which  makes  it  accessible.  Country  rocks  are 
quartzites  and  clay-stones  cut  by  porphjTitic  granite.  Porphyritic  feldspars  in  many 
places  have  been  replaced  by  green  tourmaline  and  this,  in  turn,  partly  replaced  by 
SnOg.  One  tourmaline-quartz  lode  16  feet  wide  carries  2  per  cent  tin.  Boulders  in 
river  are  probably  worth  working.  Wolframite  and  monazite  form  impurities  in  the

veins  and  strings  running  through  the  porphyritic  rock,  of  which  the  mount  is  com-

Tasmania  is  the  third  largest  tin  producer  in  the  world,  the  value  of  tin  ore  raised 
being  greater  than  all  the  other  minerals  of  Tasmania  put  together.  The  tin  deposits 
may  be  grouped  as  :  (1)  Alluvial.  (2)  Lodes  or  veins.  (3)  Impregnations  or  stock- 
works.  The  veins  occur  in  districts  which  are  composed  almost  entirely  of  granite  or 
of  sedimentary  rocks  penetrated  by  quartz-porphyry  dikes.  Vein  or  lode  mining  has 
not  yet  been  very  successful  in  Tasmania.  Stockworks  or  impregnations  of  tin  ore, 
found  in  several  localities  are  likely  to  be  of  very  great  importance.  Mt.  Bischoff 
mine  shows  a  curious  combination  of  all  the  different  types  of  tin  deposits.

Deposits  of  different  ages,  miocene  to  recent.  Some  of  older  drifts  covered  by  basalt 
and  worked  by  underground  mining,  but  most  is  obtained  from  shallow  workings  by 
ground  sluicing.  The  ore  which  has  been  easily  worked  is  about  all  taken  out. 
Hydraulicking  larger  and  poorer  deposits.  Thinks  they  will  last  for  a  century.

The  tin  deposits  of  Tasmania  are  classed  as  alluvial,  fissure  lodes  and  stock- 
works,  and  impregnations.  Examples  of  these  types  may  be  found  at  different  mines, 
while  at  Mt.  Bischoff  the  deposit  is  unusual,  presenting  almost  all  of  these  known 
types.  The  ore  is  practically  confined  to  the  granite  regions  and  their  immediate 
vicinity.

First  discovery  of  importance  at  Mount  Bischoff  in  1872,  by  Chas.  Smith  in  a 
deposit  "  of  a  highly  ferruginous  nature,  consisting  of  oxide  of  iron,  decomposed 
porphyry  and  tin  ore."  Cut  1000  feet  wide  and  100  feet  deep  gave  3  per  cent  ore. 
Two  other  districts.  Mt.  Bischoff  is  in  northwest  portion,  the  "  West  Coast  "  region 
is  just  southwest  of  it,  and  the  Northeast  District  is  in  the  northeast  part  of  the 
island.  "  West  Coast  "  not  paying.  Deposits  in  northeast  in  both  recent  and  old 
river  beds  partly  covered  by  basalt.  Gravel  up  to  170  feet  deep  in  places,  carrying 
about  three-fourths  per  cent  of  ore  worked  by  hydraulicking.

The  tin  production  of  Tasmania  holds,  according  to  writer,  the  first  place  among 
the  Australian  colonies.  Up  to  end  of  1897,  it  produced  80,000  tons  of  tin,  valued  at 
£6,500,000;  of  this  Mt.  Bischoff  contributed  about  £2,700,000.  This  mine  is  worked 
in  three  open  faces  or  quarries:  The  Brown  Face,  the  Slaughter  Face  and  the  White 
face.  Descriptions  of  these  quarries  are  given.  The  Blue  Tier  district  is  described  as 
having  intrusive  dj'kes  of  stanniferous  granite.  The  mines  have  suffered  from  poor 
management.  There  is  every  evidence  that  they  should  yield  good  paying  ores,  with 
modern  appliances  and  good  management.

Describes  the  Roy's  Hill  tin  mine  as  being  in  Permo-carboniferous  "  wash  and 
conglomerate  "  20  feet  thick  and  overlain  by  Jura-Trias  sandstone.  Beneath  the 
deposit  is  a  quartz-mica-tourmaline  rock  with  some  kaolin,  from  which  the  tin  has 
been  derived.  Both  are  worked.  Gives  an  exposition  of  the  theory  of  pneumatolytic 
deposition,  and  advises  further  prospecting.  The  St.  Paul's  mines  were  at  this  time 
idle.  They  are  in  much  silicified  and  tourmalinized  granite.  The  cassiterite  is  well 
crystallized  and  often  of  amber  or  ruby  color.

Mt.  Bischoff  tin  mine  [pp.  CL-CLVI],  rises  500  feet  above  the  Waratah  plateau. 
The  first  discovery  of  tin  ore  was  made  by  James  Smith  in  1871.  The  mine  has  been 
dividend-paying  continuously  since  1878;  total  dividends  paid  to  date  being  £1,674,000; 
total  tin  ore  to  date,  57,358  tons;  value  £3,316,528.

Supposing  only  that  the  tinstone  continues  a  very  little  below  already  proved 
depths,  there  is  sufficient  tin  bearing  rock  to  keep  several  mines  going  for  a  good 
many  years.  If  it  descends  indefinitely,  there  is  enough  stone  for  generations.  If  the 
dyke  theory  is  correct,  there  is  no  reason  why  it  should  not  persist  to  great  depth. 
If  the  floor  theory  is  the  right  one,  it  will  still  descend  to  any  required  depth.  The 
development  of  the  mines  appears  to  be  governed  by  the  water  power  available.  With 
adequate  water  supply,  the  district  would  undoubtedly  be  a  busy  tin-producing  center. 
It  is  a  productive  district  as  it  is,  but  its  production  is  intermittent,  being  dependent 
upon  rainfall.  Author  holds  high  hopes  of  a  future  for  the  Tier.  The  mines  of  the 
district  are  described  individually.

The  tin  ore  occurs  principally  in  gravels  spread  far  and  wide  over  the  surface  of  the 
country.  The  changes  in  level  of  the  land  since  Tertiary  times  and  their  effect  on 
the  tin  deposits,  as  also  that  of  lava  streams,  is  described.  Topaz,  sometimes  very

It  is  estimated  that  150  tons  of  alluvial  tin  ore  ha.s  been  mined — it  is  possible  that 
large  lodes  exist  in  the  granite,  that  have  eluded  discovery,  but  the  author  would

(decomposed  feldspar)  veins,  greisen  veins,  and  pyritic  veins.  Tin  occurs  in  nodules 
of  quartz  and  tourmaline,  sometimes  hollow,  generally  in  aplite  segregations,  but 
sometimes  in  the  granite.  Green  tourmaline  more  apt  to  occur  with  tin  than  black 
tourmaline.  Much  of  tin  in  residual  gravel  in  gray  colored  nuggets  with  granular 
.  center  covered  by  thin  concentric  layers,  frequently  layers  are  radiating.  Residual 
gravel  1  foot  to  3  feet  deep,  gave  7.7  per  cent  cassiterite.  Extent  unknown.  Some

Author  thinks  tin  of  Mt.  Bischoff  is  the  result  of  volcanic  eruptions,  Mt.  Bischoff 
being  an  extinct  volcano. 

First  deposit,  of  about  6  feet,  is  composed  of  small  detached  pieces  of  porphyry, 
granite  and  tin  disseminated  through  it. 

Second  eruption  is  more  granite,  in  shape  of  large  boulders  and  not  so  much  tin. 

Last  eruption  appears  to  have  been  more  violent  sending  up  large  masses  of  granite 
and  the  greatest  quantity  of  tin.

The  tin  prospect  now  being  developed  is  on  Mount  Franklin,  16^  miles  from  El 
Paso.  The  deposit  is  in  a  ternary  granite,  composed  of  a  pink  or  reddish  orthoclase 
feldspar,  quartz  and  mica;  it  is  intersected  in  many  places  by  veins  of  fine-grained 
granite  and  pegmatite.  This  is  overlain  by  rhyolite.  The  tin-bearing  area  contains 
"  true  fissure  veins  of  quartz  carrying  cassiterite,"  and  of  zones  of  impregnations  in 
the  neighboring  granite.  The  cassiterite  occurs  disseminated  through  the  quartz  and 
in  masses,  many  of  which  are  pure  enough  for  smelting.  Associated  minerals  are 
uncommon,  and  so  far  consist  of  hematite,  pyrite,  pyrrhotite,  tourmaline,  topaz, 
fluorite,  garnet  and  hornblende.  Tungsten,  gold,  silver  and  copper  have  also  been 
found  in  small  quantities  on  the  property.  The  cassiterite  is  often  found  in  very 
beautiful  twin  crystals,  varying  in  color  from  white  to  dark  brown.

The  larger  part  of  the  article  is  devoted  to  the  general  geology  of  the  district.  A 
coarse  red  granite  at  Bushveld  (Enkeldoorn),  42  miles  northeast  of  Pretoria,  ia 
apparently  the  youngest  of  the  rock's  except  diabase,  and  is  intrusive  in  a  felsite. 
Finer  grained  portions,  probably  a  later  phase,  carry  the  cassiterite  in  microscopic 
grains.  One  lode  is  about  12  feet  wid£  at  the  surface,  and  is  said  to  carry  1.5  per  cent 
tin.  The  Vlaklaagte  deposits  are  12  miles  further  northeast.  Here  cassiterite  is 
rather  evenly  distributed  through  a  gray  granite  cutting  the  coarse  red  granite. 
Cassiterite  crystals  are  %  inch  and  less  long.  Topaz  and  mica  also  occur,  and  the 
author  supposes  the  deposit  to  be  due  to  pneumatolytic  action.

The  tin  deposits  occur  between  the  Magalakwin  and  Sterk  rivers.  A  quartz 
vein  carries  coarsely  crystalline  cassiterite,  which  is  sparsely  distributed  in  fine 
crystals  through  the  granite  for  a  width  of  40  yards.  Fluorite  is  an  accompaniment  in 
both  vein  and  granite.  Peculiar  round  pipes  in  the  granite  also  carry  cassiterite. 
Other  minerals  with  the  cassiterite  are  molybdenite,  pyrite,  chalcopyrite,  arsenopyrite, 
galena,  copper,  tourmaline  and  a  greenish  mica.  Attributes  tin,  molybdenum  and  lead

TRANSVAAL  AND  RHODESIA  (Continued) 

Describes  the  geology  of  the  country  in  the  neighborhood  of  Rooiberg,  40  miles 
west  of  Warmbaths.  Tin  occurs  in  granite,  in  irregular  pockets,  as  veins  in  sediments 
and  replacement  deposits  in  quartzite.  In  one  group  of  replacement  deposits  cassite- 
rite  occurs  with  cobaltite,  scheelite,  cupro-scheelite,  wolframite,  and  tourmaline. 
Nickel  deposits  are  possibly  connected  with  the  tin  deposits.  The  tin  deposits  were 
worked  long  ago  as  shown  by  old  pits,  slag-dumps,  etc.,  but  by  whom  is  unknown.

A  preliminary  report  on  recently  discovered  tin  lodes  of  the  Cudgewa  district,  in 
Benambra.  Alluvial  tin  has  unquestionably  wide  distribution  in  some  parts  of  north- 
east Victoria,  but  attempts  to  work  the  tin-bearing  lodes  have  hitherto  failed.  The 
tin-bearing  veins  of  the  district  occur  mostly  in  the  granitic  rocks,  close  to  the 
contact  with  the  schists,  but  sometimes  in  the  schists.

Special  Report  Department  of  Mines,  1906,  Melbourne,   Victoria,  p.  520. 

Tin  is  the  second  mineral  of  importance  in  Victoria,  gold  occupying  the  first  place. 

It  occurs  as  Idties: 

1.  Thin  veins  [stockworks]  ramifying  granitic  and  porphyritic  rocks. 

2.  Dykes  of  coarsely  crystalline  rocks  [pegmatite  and  greisen]. 

3.  Quartz  reefs  traversing  granitic  and  porphyritic  rocks. 

As  alluvial  or  stream  tin,  it  is  found  in  the  sands  and  gravels  of  streams,  which 
have  worn  down  rocks  containing  tin. 

Principal  occurrences  of  the  lode  tin  are  at  Mt.  Cudgewa,  Mt.  Wills,  Pilot  Range, 
and  Eskdale  in  the  northeastern  district,  and  Mt.  Singapore  on  Wilsons  Promontory, 
Southern  Gippsland. 

Stream  tin  is  found  in  the  northeast  district,  Southern  Gippsland,  Eastern  Gipps- 
land, Western  Gippsland,  Upper  Yarra  and  other  districts.

No  payable  tin  workings  in  this  district  have  been  mapped.  The  largest  quantity 
yet  obtained  was  in  two  small  tributaries  of  the  Franklin  River.  As  the  deposits  are 
narrow,  and  do  not  occupy  any  considerable  length  of  the  creeks,  remunerative  tin 
workings  are  hardly  to  be  hoped  for.

Veins  are  on  a  ridge  between  Mt  Wills  Creek  [tributary  of  Big  River],  and  Wom- 
bat and  Nine  Mile  creeks,  tributary  to  Mitta  River.  Tin  found  in  creeks  and  bench 
gravels  with  bismuth  and  gold.  Some  lodes  were  found  by  government  party.  The 
country  rock  is  slate  and  feldspathic  sandstones,  of  Upper  Silurian  age,  converted  into 
nodular  schists  and  sandstones  and  highly  inclined.  Cut  by  pegmatitite  and  aplite 
masses.  Tin  occurs  in  pegmatites  as  stockworks.  "  Granulitic  "  lodes  traverse  the 
slates.  At  places  there  is  much  tourmaline  in  the  pegmatite.  Some  granite  dikes 
[ternary]  near  by  are  younger  than  Silurian;  thought  probably  to  be  Devonian.  [No 
proof  given.]  Small  amount  of  alluvial  tin  in  Wombat  valley,  probably  indicates 
that  veins  have-  not  been  exposed  long  to  erosion,  and  will  grow  better  in  depth. 
Several  large  diorite  dikes  have  cut  the  sediments  and  metamorphosed  them.  "  When 
the  lode  or  vein  intersects  certain  felsitic  sandstones  and  nodular  schists,  and  the 
lode  is  mainly  greisen,  it  is  rich  in  tin,  and  when  the  small  grains  of  white  feldspar, 
partly  converted  into  kaolinite  are  present  as  additional  ingredients,  schorl  is  more 
abundant."  Cassiterite  is  said  to  be  evenly  distributed  through  some  of  the  lodes. 
Lodes  1  to  5  feet  wide  carry  2.9  per  cent  to  20  per  cent  tin.  Accompanying  minerals: 
tourmaline,  wolfram  and  plumose  muscovite  in  large  plates.

Tin  known  to  exist  in  Virginia  about  ten  years.  Found  on  Irish  Creek,  Rockbridge 
County.  Ore  found  in  veins  in  granite.  Three  veins  thus  far  discovered.  Develop- 
ments consist  of  open  cut  extending  about  60  feet  into  face  of  hill,  and  a  tunnel 
which  penetrates  some  40  feet  further.  Mill  has  been  erected,  and  experimental  tests 
of  ore  were  made. 

1st  test:  90  tons  assayed  3.44  per  cent  metallic  tin;  concentrates  from  vhich 
assayed  43.44  per  cent  tin. 

2d  test:    75  tons  assayed  3.28  per  cent  tin,  concentrates  showing  40.40  per  cent  tin.

Cash  property  warrants  development.  Mill,  said  to  have  cost  $50,000,  was  erected  on 
property  several  years  ago,  and  about  290  tons  of  rock,  averaging  about  3.3  per  cent 
metallic  tin  were  tested.  Mineral  association  and  geological  occurrence  of  tin  here

The  tin  deposits  so  far  worked  are  all  of  detrital  origin  and  have  yielded  con- 
siderable quantities  of  ore.  The  ores  examined  seem  to  be  free  from  the  deleterious 
constituents  which  are  known  to  occur  in  the  Greenbushes  tinfield.

Output  of  Greenbushes  and  Pilbara  fields  about  200  tons  of  tin  per  annum.  In  the 
new  Wodgina  field,  tin  always  occurs  in  granite  and  pegmatite  dikes.  In  pegmatite 
dikes  tin  generally  occurs  along  the  sides,  though  sometimes  through  the  mass.  Veins 
are  accompanied  by  mica  and  tourmaline.

Output  of  tin  ore  in  1902  was  620  long  tons  valued  at  £39,783  as  compared  with 
734  tons  valued  at  £40,000  in  1901.  Greenbushes  alluvial  ore  carries  40  to  73  per  cent 
tin  and  is  associated  with  tantalite.  Tin  dressing  plant  has  been  erected  in  the 
district  by  the  government  as  an  aid  to  the  mining  industry.

The  reason  why  some  apparently  well-dressed  ore  ran  so  low  was  found  to  be  on

gold  cover  1,500,000  square  miles,  while  tin  deposits  cover  less  than  125,000  square 
miles.  Gold  is,  or  has  been  obtained  in  nearly  every  country  in  the  world,  while  tin 
comes  from  not  more  than  a  dozen  different  districts.

rocks  of  the  same  type,  associated  with  tourmaline,  fluorspar,  topaz,  wolfram  and 
arsenical  pyrites,  and  the  invariable  gangue  being  quartz."  Bolivia  is  the  only 
exception,  "  where  the  tin  ore  occurs  intimately  associated  with  silver  ores,  bismuth, 
ores  and  various  sulphides,  whilst  the  gangue  includes  barytes  and  certain  carbonates." 

Over  %  of  the  world's  tin  is  from  secondary  alluvial  deposits.  Cornwall  and

"  In  the  above  memoir  Daubree  describes  the  mode  of  occurrence  of  tin  ore  in 
certain  stockvvorks  in  Saxony,  Bohemia,  Cornwall  and  France.  He  shows  that,  after 
quartz,  the  minerals  most  frequently  accompanying  tin  ore  are  compounds  containing 
fluorine,  principally  fluosilicates  (lepidolite,  topaz),  sometimes  fluophosphates  (apatite) 
and  fluorides  (fluorspar).  The  element  boron  (tourmaline,  axinite)  is  often  abundant. 
The  other  elements  most  commonty  met  with  are  tungsten,  molybdenum,  phosphorus, 
arsenic  and  iron.  Daubr6e  draws  the  conclusion  that  the  tin  ore,  fluorine  com- 
pounds, and  borosilicates  owe  their  origin  to  the  same  set  of  reactions.  He  supposes 
that  the  tin,  tungsten,  molybdenum,  boron,  phosphorus,  and  some  of  the  silicon  came 
up  through  fissures  from  some  deep  seated  source  as  fluorides.  Finally,  Daubr6e 
suggests  that  the  present  condition  of  the  stockworks,  which  consist  of  quartz,  tin 
ore,  silicates,  fluosilicates  and  borosilicates,  resulted  from  the  reactions  of  these 
fluorides,  probably  in  the  presence  of  water,  on  the  enclosing  rocks." — C.  Le  Neve

From  an  examination  of  evidence  to  be  found  in  Cornwall,  and  also  from  early

Age  in  Britain  is  from  three  to  four  thousand  years,  and  the  consequent  production 
of  tin  in  Devon  and  Cornwall  must  be  as  old."

Author  arrives  at  following  conclusions,  some  as  historical  facts,  the  rest  as  proba- 
bilities: 

(1)  At  one  epoch  the  provinces  of  Limousin  arifl  Marche  possessed  at  Montebras  and 
Vaulry  important  tin  mines. 

(2)  Similar  works  were  probably  attempted  throughout  these  two  Provinces,  which 
accounts  for.  the  numerous  remains  of  open  works  now  visible. 

(3)  Gold,  which  is  found  at  Vaulry,  and  traces  of  gold  at  St.  Leonard,  had  proba- 
bly been  sought  for  by  the  old  miners  in  these  works, 

(4)  The  silence  of  history,    and  the  open   character   of   the   works,    justify  him   in 
attributing  them  to  the  Gauls.

40th  Ann.  Rep.  Roy.  Cornwall  Polyt.  Soc.,  1872,  Falmouth,  pp.  63-121. 

From  a  historical  point  of  view  the  author  treats  of  the  discovery,  methods  and 
progress  of  early  mining,  including  tools,  machinery  and  power;  dressing,  smelting 
and  sale  of  tin  and  copper,  with  short  discussion  of  the  early  miner.

(1874),  Plymouth,  pp.  120-140. 

Conclusions  reached  are: 

"  First.  That  the  historical  evidence  of  the  antiquity  of  western  mining  takes  it 
back  at  least  2300  years. 

"  Second.  That  the  inferential  evidence  carries  it  nearly  2000  years  further,  and 
possibly  doubles  the  first-named  period. 

"  Third.  That  the  geological  evidence  would  antedate  the  commencement  of  mining, 
and  consequently  the  use  of  metals,  to  a  time  when  the  mammoth  either  still  existed 
in  the  west  of  England,  or  had  not  long  disappeared;  and  when  the  general  level  of 
Devon  and  Cornwall  was  at  least  30  feet  higher  than  it  is  now.  Taking  Sir  Charles 
Lyell's  estimate  of  the  rate  of  crust  motion  at  2%  feet  in  a  century,  fully  2000  years 
would  thus  be  covered  by  the  gradual  process  of  subsidence  and  whilst  we  cannot  tell 
when  it  ended,  nor  perhaps  accurately  estimate  the  chronological  value  of  later 
changes,  we  know  from  St.  Michael's  Mount  that  it  must  have  ceased  certainly  2000 
years  ago;  whilst  other  reasons  appear  to  indicate  a  much  more  remote  antiquity."

as  a  rule,  be  brought  to  lower  content  of  tin  than  about  4  per  cent,  which  in  works 
smelting  ten  tons  of  ore  daily,  represents  a  loss  of  3  cwt.  to  4  cwt.  of  metallic  tin. 
Author  finds  that  this  may  be  recovered  to  a  great  extent  by  decomposing  the  slag 
with  sulphuric  acid,  when  the  iron  and  tin  are  dissolved,  giving  a  solution  from

with  other  metals  of  a  crystalline  structure.  Heated  rolled  zinc  emits  a  "  cry  "  like 
tin,  only  fainter.  Cast  zinc,  if  pinched  between  the  .teeth  or  plier  emits  the  sound 
distinctly.  This  cry,  alone  or  in  conjunction  with  a  microphone,  becomes  an  indicator 
of  the  crystalline  texture  of  metal  beams  and  their  fitness  for  certain  classes  of  work.

The  first  part  of  this  memoir  gives  the  results  of  experiments  made  by  Daubree, 
with  a  view  of  imitating  the  processes  by  which  Nature  may  have  acted  in  forming 
minerals.  Instead  of  using  fluorides,  which  are  not  so  easily-  prepared,  Daubree 
generally  employed  chlorides.  From  the  great  analogy  of  fluorides  with  chlorides  he 
considers  that  the  results  obtained  with  the  latter  may  be  safely  supposed  to  occur 
with  the  former.  The  first  experiment  consisted  in  passing  a  current  of  stannic 
chloride  and  a  current  of  steam  into  a  red-hot  porcelain  tube.  Double  decomposition 
took  place,  and  crystals  of  stannic  oxide  were  deposited  on  the  sides  of  the  tube. 
The  crystals  were  found  to  belong  to  the  rhombic  system,  which  shows  that  stannic 
oxide,  like  titanic  oxide,  is  dimorphous.  The  temperature  of  the  end  of  the  tube, 
where  the  crystals  were  deposited  did  not  exceed  572°  F.  (300°  C.),  or,  in  other  words 
was  rather  less  than  the  melting  point  of  lead.  Titanic  chloride,  treated  in  the  same 
way,  gave  crystals  of  brookite;  whilst  a  deposit  of  vitreous  and  in  part  crystallized 
quartz  was  obtained  from  chloride  of  silica  and  steanl—  C.  Le  Neve  Foster.

Present  high  price  of  tin  makes  it  probable  that  some  abandoned  mines  could  be 
profitably  worked  by  modern  methods.  In  early  days  lodes  were  worked  for  only  one 
of  the  metalliferous  minerals,  rest  thrown  to  waste.  Can  be  made  to  cover  cost  of 
mining  and  dressing  if  it  carries  only  a  little  under  1  per  cent  (22.4  pounds  per  ton) 
of  "  black  tin  "  which  generally  contains  over  90  per  cent  cassiterite  and  yields  on
